Is it possible to flush out diesel fuel in a gasoline lawn mower engine without buying a new lawn mower?
Any recommendation would be appreciated.
Answer
Yes you can do it! You didn't say if it's a push or a rider, either way it's simple! If you have a push mower first remove the air filter, tip the mower over (with a bucket under to catch the diesel) getting as much out as possable. Some engine oil will run out that's why you removed the air filter to keep oil out of the element. Refill the tank with fresh gasoline. You may have to use a starting fluid (sparingly) to counteract the diesel in the carb, but it will start. run the tank dry and you should be over the crisis of diesel fuel. Oh don't forget to replace the clean air filter!

what kind of gas do you use in a new kohler engine lawn mower?

It is a new Lawn Boy mower bought at Home Depot.
I heard on the radio that the unleaded gas with ethanol is bad for mowers.

Hi Susan
If you can buy 100 percent gasoline, that is what you should use. It runs better and is not as bad about gumming up your carburetor as ethanol gas is. There is a station near me that has non ethanol gasoline so there are a few around. If you are going to store your mower over the winter it is best to add an additive to prolong the fuel's life. A couple of these are STP fuel treatment, Sta-bil.
Hope this helps
